TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Ipswich are in real bother and it's no surprise to see Paul Jewell's name heading the next manager out lists. It was plain to see that he had an impossible job when he started getting his side together in pre-season. He got one of the lowest budgets in the league and soon realised he and the team were in trouble. He has a poor first eleven and next to no cover on the bench. After a run of eight games with out a win Ipswich are really staring into a barrel here. They gave a performance of real heart to get a point at high flyers Brighton and hopefully they can kick on now.
Cardiff are moving into top gear at the moment as everything seems to have clicked. With a dominating 2-1 win over Birmingham things are looking good for Cardiff. They have four wins from 5 now and are starting to look ominous. With serious goal threats from all over the pitch and a forward line consisting of ex Premier hitmen Bellamy and Helguson this team have credible title aspirations.The back line is rock solid they do have strength in depth.

1X2 BETTING PREDICTION

2.49 Cardiff (Pinnacle)seems a massive price here. A real surprise with these prices as Cardiff should be nearer 2.20 for me. Ipswich are being priced up on name alone as they have nothing in the team to suggest they can take points of Cardiff, even at home. Cardiff's game plan is well suited to away games also and they should have an easy three points here.I cannot see this price lasting at all, so get on while the value is there.

ASIAN HANDICAP PREDICTION

Cardiff on the -0.25 Handicap is the pick here (2.19 188bet) The outright price is too big so we have a handicap price around the true 1X2 price so its top value. Cardiff have too much in all departments against a poor home side and should be taken at this price.

TOTAL GOALS PREDICTION

Under 2.50 goals 2.17(188bet) is the bet here.Although the stats suggest an overs game with so many decent attacking players, both sides are capable of keeping it tight. Cardiff away and Ipswich at home are low scoring on the averages. Cardiff will keep it tight for sure and as I don't think Ipswich will score I also cannot see Cardiff getting three.
